Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
==========
Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world
==========
IMPORTANT
Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta
==========
Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

Why are some people old in heaven? I’d want to have a 23yo body forever, thank you very much.
And why are some people children in heaven? Does this mean they’ll never develop and get to know what it is like to be mature?
It’s almost like this whole Heaven concept hasn’t been thought out very far.
Jehovah's witness fan art makes for such great memes.
I received a flyer for "Let's celebrate Jesus' death" this April. Terrible choice of words

So, what happens if you've survived a spouse and remarried? Do you have to choose who you want to spend eternity with?
What about adopted and surrogate kids: do they have to hang out with their biological parents now?
Heaven is such a ridiculous concept.
It’s always funny when they depict adults being reunited with their children. How come those adults aren’t depicted as children being reunited with THEIR parents.. and recursively so on and so on.
Yes, you have to choose which eternity you want, though it doesn't necessarily have to be with either spouse.

Eternity? Marriage is only "til death do us part!"
What if you bought your wife an eternity ring?
It's not like it came with her!
That's partly why I don't believe in the existence of heaven or hell
There's an obvious answer; god decides. You asked that question which made him angry so you're going to hell now. Its how we know you're not one of the elect
What makes me sad about heaven is that there must be a cutoff in the monkey -> human evolution chain. What happened to the very first human that met that cutoff? They'll be in heaven but their parents are too monkey and didn't make it :(
Based on the all dogs go to heaven philosophy, I would say the cutoff would be in the other direction.
I love this reflection. It kind of shines a spotlight on the fallibility of mainstream religions under rational thought. Could there be something after death? Sure. But the stories people are peddled arent based on any truth, it's just telling people what they want to hear to get them to join the club.
There's a people heaven, and a dog heaven, and a monkey heaven, a bird heaven, etc. Like, what? There's an estimated 8.7 million species on earth, you think there's a heaven for each of them? When evolution spins off something new or species cross breed, like a liger from a lion and tiger, does a new heaven just pop into existence?
Mainstream depictions of heaven are bunk.
If you believe evolution is real, you'll obviously never go to heaven, so you'll never find out.
Or what if the apes did go to heaven? All of them? From all time. That's a lot of apes for the early humans to deal with.
And it means that in the end we'll all have to face Harambe.

I'm more concerned about the tombstones shown in the panting in heaven. like what happened to THOSE people? are they Super Dead?
If I don't want afterlife I can just stay dead??
Maybe they ask you to accept terms at the beginning & if you refuse they just let you have your peace, one life was enough.
This picture is from a Jehovah's Witness publication. This isn't a depiction of heaven, but rather a future paradise earth. And the picture depicts various people being redirected back to life.
I saw this picture and it immediately gave me flashbacks to JW flyers
From Wikipedia:
Jehovah's Witnesses believe that a "little flock" of 144,000 selected humans go to heaven, but that God will resurrect the majority (the "other sheep") to a cleansed earth after Armageddon.
I feel like the presence of the headstones and the children more points to the latter belief, that God will resurrect the dead after Armageddon or whatever.
Like, God has resurrected your kid's dead grandpa, straight out of the grave, and now you're forced to deal with your shitty father-in-law for eternity
They are dildos, for the giants.

Child mortality was high back then, eh?
Edit: just saw the Anakin after.
Can you explain the Anakin joke, then?
It's exactly as it sounds. Anakin in Star Wars ended up going nuts and slaughtered an entire class of children training to be Jedi.
Wow. Uh... I don't know what I expected.

Why are they in a fucking cemetery?! What the fuck is going on up there?
Sometimes you just need to be able to kill a mf in heaven.
And that happens a lot.
So cemetery.
Nietze was wrong, God is undead.
Statistically, if there's an afterlife, there's billions of babies and fetuses in it.
If there's an afterlife and we're counting the unborn, then it's swimming in an endless sea of sperm
an endless sea of sperm
Also if heaven(s?) are tailored to individual's liking.
Isn't it a little tortuous to send children to heaven as children. Even if just a spirit, the appearance and mind of a child feels a little Kirsten Dunst in interview with a vampire. Same with the old. Who wants to go to heaven as an old man or woman?
Most conceptions of heaven kinda feel like hell. This picture scares the hell out of me.

If i'm wrong someone can correct me, but don't a lot of christians believe that your aoul lies in wait until the day of judgement anyway? So everyone shows up at heaven at the same time.
Time works differently when you're dead
Edit: sorry... don't let me ruin your meme lol, i'm just religious infodumping
